Intro: G# C# F# G# C# F# G#
N.F# G# C# F# G#
There's a place I can get to
C# F# G#
Where I'm safe from the city blues
C# F# G#
Where it's clean and it's quiet
C# F#
Only trouble was, I had to buy it
CHORUS:
N.C. A#m Fm F#
I'd do anything I got to do
Fm
Cut my hair and shine my shoes
A#m Fm
Keep on singing the blues
F#
If I can stay here
N.C. G# C# F# G#
In Johnny's garden
C# F# G#
There's a swift road lies over the grasses
C# F# G#
Dipping now and then to take juice and breakfast
C# F# G#
This I come and go in my travels
C# F#
I watched that blow and unravel
CHORUS:
N.C. A#m Fm F#
I'd do anything I got to do
Fm
Cut my hair and shine my shoes
A#m Fm
Keep on singing the blues

If I can stay here

INSTRUMENTAL: G# C# F# G#

And his children are his flowers
C# F#
They bring me peace and quiet hours
CHORUS:
